Meet our Sweet Interns!

TGIS, Rioters! As in, thank goodness it’s spring! Today marks the first day of spring and we’re so excited about it. We did a recap blog post not long ago of some sweet things sweetriot has been working on up to this point. Now, before we head into the warm season (and, believe us, we’re ready for it) we want to share with you a behind the scenes look at our current interns who have been working so hard to make all of our events and campaigns happen! Mathilde, Lisa and Sophie have written up brief bios about themselves to share with our rioters. 250 words is hardly enough to capture just how awesome these ladies are, but hopefully you’ll get an idea for why we love them so much!

Sophie:

Hi, I’m Sophie! I’m a lifelong Manhattanite, but I’ve been going to a history-based high school in the Bronx for the last three years. I started working at the riot at the start of the new year, after working for Columbia Business School over the summer. When i’m not running the sweetriot social media, (or studying for the SAT), I’ll most likely be cooking, watching or listening to comedy, helping out at my synagogue, or running cross-country with my school. I either want to work in the food industry or the business world when i’m older, or maybe a combination of the two. I love working for the riot because everyone here is passionate about what we do; whether its having fun, eating cacao, or saving the world! I can’t wait to learn even more about natural foods and social enterprise in my next few months here, and I love being the youngest riot intern. (I just turned 17!)

Lisa:

Hello !

I’m Lisa from France and I’m currently studying at the Manhattan Institute of Management in New York to get my Master’s degree. Moreover, I have already a bachelor’s degree in Business and management and I want to specialize myself in Marketing next year. As I want to be a product manager in food industry I found the great opportunity to work for Sweetriot.

More personally I’m from Nice, a city in the south of France, so for me the sun is very important and makes me happy, I spend my time walking, picnic and the thing that I love the most is to eat a healthy salad in front of the sea sunbathing with my friends and talk for hours to remake the world.

I like to travel; I’ve visited Australia, Thailand, Tunisia, Spain, Italia, Portugal and other European countries and now I’m in New York City for 6 months to work and travel before returning to my cocoon.

Mathilde:

Hi everyone ! I am Mathilde. I was born in the wonderful country : France. I lived one year in Mexico. I love to discover another culture and live a new adventure. Life is a long trip where you are to make good decisions and face your fears. After each of my abroad experience I become stronger because I overcome my fears and I learn to adapt myself in the different environment. My new destination was New York City. I love challenge because thanks to that life it's funnier ! I am a sport addict. Nothing is better than going to run one hour to clear my head. I love good and health food it's for this reason I chose sweetriot to do my internship. I have a specialization in marketing and I want to find a position as product manager. Where ? I don't know; I will see where the wind carries me.
